About the game:
Instruments of Destruction features an advanced physics-based destruction system. You can demolish every structure in the game piece by piece. In addition, every object you see in the game world--save for small decorative plants and rocks--is part of the physics system. Each element of the world interacts with each other and together they create a physical, visceral world to play with.
Build Your Vehicle
Build a vehicle your way, with an ever-expanding array of parts and pieces. Using an intuitive vehicle construction system that also lets you customize your vehicles' appearance and controls, you'll always have fun creating your next awesome invention.
From simple splitters to advanced joints, a variety of parts slowly unlock as you play through the game, and each unlocks countless new possibilities.
While some vehicles will perform better than others in accomplishing your objectives, it's always a bit more fun to get creative and go a little off script. Optional bonus challenges and objectives will reward more creative builders and add more replayability.

What if you dropped a whole bunch of heavy objects down like carpet bombing, since the shockwaves only get so big. Might as well have more.

[@cristianemontagner9616]

Yes, it would be soo cool

[@harrugio4678]

Yah

[@steeljawX]

I was going to comment something like this. He missed the test of multiple sites of impact AKA multiple simultaneous impacts. It'll be probably the same, but do the forces compound together or do they act separately. Also, he needs to sandwich a building with shockwaves because that'll send the debris to space.

[@savagecatdev]

yessss

[@theblankbuttnugget23]

Lol I was thinking a simple large symmetrical cube with multiple legs for impact n just drop it from high up buuut yea carpet bombing just sounds cooler n u can never go wrong with some carpet bombing xD

[@Necromorph790]

Shame that it doesnt grow larger and larger depending on speed. Would love to see the HUGE shockwave that we all expected

[@skavi_8692]

If it would grow larger and larger,a weapon that is based on the concept of " rods from god" would be a perfect weapon with no down sides

[@tylerphuoc2653]

@@Silverwing2112 I mean, all you need is a carbonized rod with thermal shielding and a few maneuvering thrusters for a decaying orbit. Super wasteful at our point in space colonization, but with less resource scarcity it would be pretty cost-effective compared to bombs and stuff like that

[@lavaleopard2961]

Oh yeah, if the damage of the shockwave was based around energy, not a set amount (or whatever it currently is) the destruction would be a Lot more realistic, which I’m pretty sure is what the game is going for.

"There's actually minimal collateral damage all things considered." As basically half of the left building is carved out and is still falling apart 😂

[@spectralaria8648]

I really want to see a walker that makes shockwaves every time it takes a step. Sounds like it would be very satisfying to walk next to the buildings.

[@gamingperson2526]

Great idea, an at-at design would be cool

[@emperormoist3851]

I hope they change the shockwave scaling. It would be cool to get a shockwave that covers a large chunk of the map

[@stevepittman3770]

Oh that's cool. I have a few ideas on how to take this to the next level. 1. Jackhammer: Velocity and contact area seem to be more important than how much weight is behind it (inertia), so small impactor of one or a few blocks hitting the ground repeatedly at high speed should be quite effective. 2. Shockwave-railgun-thing: You have a line of impactors pointed at a building and you fire them in series from furthest to closest to the building in rapid succession and maybe each one contributes to the shockwave of the last one resulting in one large shockwave? 3. Shockwave-vortex-thing: Like #2 but in a ring instead of a line, encircle a building and then fire them in rapid succession around it. I'm a simple man, I see something cool I can't help but think 'Ok what if that but MORE?' ;)

[@hellfire6231]

I also thought of the jackhammer thing:)

[@uattias]

4:25 that rubber duck sound was perfect for that moment!

[@b0nes329]

Fun fact: Ultra Heavy blocks can have their mass tuned upwards of 3500 per block.

[@stevepittman3770]

I think the shockwave is based on the speed at which an object hits the ground and not mass/inertia so we're going to need something more powerful than gravity to accelerate the impactors.

[@b0nes329]

@@stevepittman3770 this could be the case, however, in my experiments with the mass manipulator in the sandbox, you can create massive shockwaves with the lightest touch on the ground

You should try creating a machine that claps to create shockwaves since they probally can be produced between the vehicle itself too!

[@ziqrifauzi8965]

This game always seems to get amazing updates that add tons of fun to it

[@Taranoku]

I think maybe you already reached the maximum shockwave size and strength so it doesn't feel like its increasing. If that's the case than I would love if the devs could increase the maximum or make an item that can.

[@mm-rj3vo]

I want to see something that hammers the ground very rapidly, repeatedly, at maximum shockwave power

[@gameknight.thump1]

Aka a jackhammer

[@Me........]

Scrapman I got a really cool idea. Jack hammer or something that pounds the ground real fast. Imagine rapid fire shockwaves

[@Angelofdeath7557]

Love watching the rocket drop into the building then just dive into the distance

[@PheonixT]

The spike test shows you: It's not the length of the spike it's how you use it.

[@jacksonlee6760]

This game still never ceases to amaze me!

[@flamethedude4300]

You know what would be cool? Something like a big mech like in those boss battles in old video games, that would pound the ground with its fists... also keep up the good work!

[@gochu7509]

Would it be possible for a clap to produce shockwaves too?

[@Toesaredelicious]

wow 33 seconds ago that’s the earliest I’ve got to one of his vids except for 3 seconds ago. I guess you could say I’m a fan 😁

[@lordnyx2343]

The concept of dropping a heavy object from (effectively) space has existed in media for a while, with a few notable examples being Rods from god, KEM strike (CoD Ghosts), and a kinetic bombardment projectile.

[@stuckonthepot6187]

The missile style one reminds me of Rods from God. A proposed weapon platform satellite, that launched massive tungsten rods from orbit. The resulting shockwave was pitched to have the force of a nuclear weapon, with the added bonus of no nuclear fallout. But, it most likely would have roughly the same force of a MOAB. The true benefits of the weapon platform would be the inability to stop one of the rods post fire, because it's just a solid metal rod.

[@Dalorian1]

@5:30 you should create some leverage advantage with some fancy mechanics to increase your rotation speed.

[@Nevir202]

LOL at ScrapMan inventing the "Rods From God"

[@breadedbread3561]

When you pause there is a setting that allows you to adjust the power of the impacts. I had a lot of fun messing around with it.

[@MahBor]

Maybe more surface area hitting the ground = more shockwaves?

[@ZaaltheDragon]

The back of the hammer was making bigger shockwaves with less surface area hitting the ground.

[@LordToasterGaming]

You should try the rocket approach but with a big flat area for the impact. I feel like the bigger surface area impacting makes a bigger shockwave because the shockwave might start at the edge of the impact area.

[@darkfire_17]

I would love to see you use instruments of destruction. For clarity instruments as in drum, guitar,etc.

[@ToastyGamer307]

Scrapman: marginally stronger than the hammer Meanwhile the building collapsing behind him

[@TheBoristheboar]

Congratulations ScrapMan you made any even more deadly lawn dart.

[@claytonwoodrow]

11:47 OMG LOOK AT THE REFLECTION IN THE SHOCKWAVE!!!!!

[@icu5210]

If the effect happens when it hits your own creation you should build a drum or a gong to make an “instrument” of destruction

[@gamerxdpro9112]

Why the notification is late and the shockwave are cool keep it up i really like those videos i hope you made another one and the song you made are cool

[@amtheminer3803]

You know someones gunna make a machine that creates max lvl shockwaves with a fraction of a second between each shockwave

[@skarr1138]

"The first idea I want to experiment with is a giant hammer" _How Ridiculous intensifies_

[@rehaan_bplayz6193]

It is realistic that building feel the Shockwave before the visual since sound travels fast as hell through solids

[@pychoking6741]

This feature reminds me of the "Rods from god" or Kinetic bombardment weapon concepts from 2003

[@Earthenfist]

Oh man, you could make the COOLEST Big O mech with this.

[@abhilashdash3196]

The missile is like an assassin: destroys targeted building and leaves the scene

[@wonay]

if there is a shockwave on the building. there might be to the contraption itself. and its that is the case, you can do a clapping robot that generate shockwave :)

[@moseslmps6261]

IDEA!! MAKE A THOR HAMMER< TO SLAM ON THE GROUND< SO IT SENDS A SHOCKWAVE LIKE IN THE MOVIES!!

[@spooderman4008]

The aerial based doom missile is actually a concept that could exist in real life! They're called "Rods from God." Basically, 20ft (6m) long, 1ft (0.3m) diameter tungsten rods dropped from orbit. They can reach five times the speed of sound (Or even double that) and impact with the force of an ICBM (Inter-continental Ballistic Missile) but getting that much weight into space wouldn't be cheap. Edit: with a 6m by .3m cylinder having the volume of roughly 424115 cubic centimeters and tungsten weighing in at 19.3 grams per CC, that would weigh 8185419.5 grams. That's 8185.4195 kg (18045.7609 lbs)! With $10,000 per-pound, that would cost $180,457,609 to send ONE into space! That's not even counting the infrastructure required to launch it.

[@solarwarrigil1364]

Now what needs to be tested. If the shockwaves come from contact with anything, what if you make a huge clapping contraption, or even a super fast punching robot

[@tomasprochazka7840]

Please make like a destructive jackhammer that just drives by the buildings and annihilates everything around it

[@davidvarga2705]

Maybe the shock wave mechanics are based on a contact of surface so maybe if you have a big heavy plate with some balloons then dropped it it would make a bigger shock wave or a small one like the one you made

[@cablecar3683]

9:24 scrap man pogs

[@dark-5825]

1:00 Fun fact: that is an actual concept of the US military. They're called 'rods from god' and are just massive tungsten darts in a satellite. They were deemed impractical though iirc since tungsten isn't neccessarily the cheapest metal

[@ninjarudeboy858]

Who would have thought that you would be able to knock down buildings with the shockwaves

[@VJK102]

That is just, logical

[@motokohammond4737]

Since it seems there is a limit to the shockwave that it can create, technically you could make a piston that hits the ground repeatedly with a really heavy object. Kinda like a jackhammer in essence but one that indirectly destroys buildings :3

Ok this was already on my wishlist and I was waiting for a sale but I may just have to go ahead and get it, it's just getting cooler and cooler! 😆

[@johnjacobjingleheimerschmi6655]

Here's a great idea. Make your missile longer, take out the weights and flatten the nose. Then just have a bunch of free floating steel balls inside with a block of space. Then when it hits, it makes multiple shockwaves through the missile.

[@scruffmaster0185]

Inertial force scaling is what we need here

[@ManthaaHD]

Make the hammer shaft longer for a higher radial velocity.

[@Mr0nePunch01]

Scrapman I have a great idea for Multi-Player Monday. How about a Land, Sea and Air Challenge in Trailmakers. BUT you can build 3 vehicles 1 for each challenge.. but ALL vehicles HAVE to use ALL the parts from every other vehicle. So when you transform, no parts fall off or are left behind. I think it would be interesting, and fun.

[@Peekofwar]

To show you the power of Flex Beams, I sawed this shockwave in half!

[@benjaminlootens4500]

Scrapman... it has become absolutely imperative. The game Warframe has these robots called Tusk thumpers. You should recreate one in iod to see just how destructive they would be.

idea: a weapon that makes large shockwaves to topple buildings repeatedly

[@Anti-Smart]

There is a theoretical weapon called "The rods of God", I think it would be fun if you built something like it.

[@ZaaltheDragon]

Did you notice that the back of the hammer was making bigger shockwaves? I think there's a point of impact type of physics instead of weight. That being the smaller the impact point, the bigger the shockwave.

[@jackobunniegoexplore4390]

Shockwave approved this video

[@jessealan1873]

Hear me out, hulk clap. If you can create a shockwave by hitting yourself, you can double the speed by having both hands moving.

[@jessealan1873]

Also, double shockwave

[@papichulo9684]

So satisfying

[@memez4life191]

you should make a cluster missile for multiple shockwaves

[@wildwyatxbox]

the last creation reminds me of the ODIN satellites from Call of Duty Ghosts

[@dylandebruyn356]

Make a wheel with a piston on it with a weight on the end of it, spin the wheel crazy fast just above ground and then extend the piston for maximum speed. Can probably be scaled up to make it really heavy. Or a catapult that doesn't actually catapult but instead slams its cargo straight into the floor.

Hey Scrapman, nice vid ! Maybe you could try to make a multiple shockwave device using bearings and a central thrust point : 1) Flat 0-0-0-0-0 2) Thrust down the ground with only the middle part with thrust 0 0 \ / 0 0 \ / 0 3) The center hit the ground first, then the second layer, then the 3rd layer 0 0 \ / 0 0 \ / 0 0 0 \ / 0--0--0 0--0--0--0--0
